with the .&tudents. But it wasn't
long before we were showing pic­tUres
of just about everyone who
works at RPI. Some of these pic­tures

Fa'sh ion Club
Hears Youth
Consultan.t
"No matter how fashionable a
girl may be, all she has to do to be
uncharming is to Jos-e her warm
awarness of others and their feel­ings."
That is the advice of fashion
expert Miss Gonzalee Ford, youth
consultant at Thalhimers.
Miss Ford was the guest speaker
at the Fashion ·Club meeting Octo­ber
21. She spoke on current fash~
ion trends to a group at 35 stu~
dents.
"Along with the short skirted
100k are five other important Jooks:
the belted, the gentry, the classic
and the furred," Miss Ford said.
Popular among college students is
the classic look which includes a
skirt, a shirt and a sweater or
jacket. •
Also at the meeting, th-e club
teI1tatively planned to sell candy
to raise their ;30 pledge for the
Scholarship Fund.
"Sleepy" Wilson wanted to meet
a matador wh ile she was in Spain
this summer. So she did, and he
dedicated his bull to her.
Sleepy, the coed with the unHkely
nickname and an even more un­likely
given name of Dyan, went to
Spain specifically to paint bull~
fighters. She's a Fine Arts major.
by Susan Smith
"I guess every girl's dream is to
meet a real matador," she said.
"I met Curro Montez at the pub~
lie pool in Madrid. I had been to
the bull~fights often, and mos,.t of
the matadoi's 1 had seen were very
short and very YO!lng. But not
Curro. He was about 6' 2", broad·
shouldered, not too young and very

Talking through an interpreter,
Sleepy discovered that he was one
of Madrid's most popular fighters.
De(licates Bull
When Sleepy went to the Plaza
de Taros (she pronounced it with
a lisp- Platha de Toroth- as an
good Spani"ards do) to see Curro
fiight, he surprised her by dedicat­ing
his bull to her. Matadors do this
by bowing towards the person \0
whom the bull is dedicated.
"The trumpets went ta~da~da-da,
and there was Curro at the head of
the procession in a beautifully em­broidered
beige suit. He bowed fir~
to th; President and then to me.
Then he threw his hat in the stands
where 1 was sitting, but it landed
behind me and someone else got

Sleepy does. have a souvenir,
though, - a paper·thin leather wal­let
he gave her.
"Unfortunately his fjrst bull gored
him. Not seriously, but enough ~o
'that he didn't meet us for din­ner.
His agent said Jt was mOJ'e
wounded pride than anything else."
"I never did see him again be­cause
the next day I left for the
States," she _ added.

It was Sleepy's first trip to Eu·

a matador for the home of an
American Embassy official. Flying
both ways, she left May 30 and reo

Sleepy, a senior, plans to teach
art in Fairfax county after getting
her degree. She also has studied at
Rollins College in Florida and at
George ,Washington UniverSity.
Where did she get the nickname,
Sleepy? "I don't know; I've been
called that :since 1 was 10. I guess
it 's because I'm slow," she said.
